The Chiyoko Minolta Memo was a 35mm camera made by Chiyoda Kōgaku Seikō in 1949, the first 35mm camera made by the company which later became Minolta. The streamlined bakelite case was a distinctive feature, as was the bottom-mounted rapid wind lever, which originally was rather fragile plastic. The Rokkor 50mm f4.5 lens is a triplet design. The shutter is a A2 Lames with speeds 1/15-1/100 plus bulb mode. The camera had a telescopic viewfinder on top.
